SCRE 1007

Testimony or Written Admission of Party

activein force · 2026-10-02 – presentcompiled-edition

Contents of writings, recordings, or photographs may be proved by the testimony or deposition of the

party against whom offered or by that party's written admission, without accounting for the

nonproduction of the original.

Note:

This rule is identical to the federal rule. The case law has not previously recognized

any limitation on the form of the statement or admission which can be used. Gardner

v. City of Columbia Police Dep't, 216 S.C. 219, 57 S.E.2d 308 (1950). Therefore, this rule

may be somewhat narrower since it limits the statements or admissions which can be

used to those contained in testimony, deposition or written admission.

Unofficial copy of government-published law, reproduced from official sources with full provenance. Not an official publication; verify against official sources before relying on it in a filing. Records in the 'guidance' corpus, and only that corpus, are sub-regulatory (interpretive guidelines, survey procedures) and are not binding law. Validity bounds follow each jurisdiction's declared temporalBasis.
